1481678 2021-10-29 17:41:00 What is it with this latest absurd saying? Why do they "take the knee"? Why don't they kneel down just the same as everyone else?

It just sounds like another stupid Yank saying that they are thrusting upon the populace. It's ridiculous.:groan:

1481681 2021-10-29 20:59:00 Isn't it because that is what you do, "you take the knee", in that you put both hands on one knee as you bend down to it and then put your head on your hands. zqwerty (97)

Can’t even kneel to pray.

How bad is that?

That's another silly Yank practice that seems to have spread. I did not see any kneed to do that. (grin.)
